About The Pirates of Penzance
Considered among Gilbert and Sullivan's most beloved operas and showcasing a remarkable score, This legendary comedic opera boasts a wonderfully absurd plot, witty banter, and beloved tunes. It follows the tale of a young pirate apprentice's quest to win the heart of the Major General's daughter, while his hapless, clumsy crewmates attempt to outsmart a group of equally inept policemen. Premiering in 1879, the opera has been rejuvenated with a magical and vibrant new production that illuminates the sunny essence of the story. Age Recommendation: 5+
